Evansville, IN Regional Roll-out Leader/Lead Organization Information Name: Tri-State Business Group on Health Link: http://www.tsbgh.evansville.net/ Contact: Lisa Gish Why did your organization decide to apply to become a Leapfrog Regional Roll-Out leader? We became a Regional Roll-Out leader to begin infusing our desire to make focusing on quality a priority in our community. We are undertaking several initiatives that all will help position our community’s employers to drive improvements in quality and access. We believe the impact has been positive. Our two major hospital systems have responded as did one specialty (Women’s) hospital and one rural hospital. While the two major hospital systems have not provided us with much feedback, the rural hospital that participated told us that they are extremely proud of their participation and have had very positive feedback from their community and Board.
